Twenty Attorneys General: “…SPLC has been utterly discredited as a reliable source”

By

Magnifying Glass on White Background

 

“The memorandum’s reliance on the SPLC is particularly disappointing, given that the SPLC has been utterly discredited as a reliable source. Its founder is said to have “viewed civil-rights work mainly as a marketing tool for bilking gullible Northern liberals,” and former staffers have confessed that the SPLC has been “ripping off its donors” by failing to “live[] up to the values it espoused.” Bob Moser, The Reckoning of Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center, New Yorker (Mar. 21, 2019)”

SPLC Hate Map Under Fire After FBI Used It: Catholic Journalist Warns of Plan ‘to Silence People’

By

“First of all, the SPLC, you have to understand, is probably one of the most evil groups in America. They’ve become a money-making machine and they’ve become an absolute Marxist, anarchist organization.”

SPLC Hate Map Under Fire After FBI Used It: Catholic Journalist Warns of Plan ‘to Silence People’

A Catholic journalist is warning that the Federal Bureau of Investigation recently took a foreboding step that should alarm conservative believers. It turns out the FBI actually cited the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in a memo targeting traditionalist Catholics who follow the church’s teachings on marriage and who celebrate the Latin Mass. And critics say the SPLC’s far-left definition of hate groups is the real problem.

The memo – which was later withdrawn – talked of tracking interactions between so-called “radical-traditionalist Catholics” (RTC) and white nationalist groups, according to the online publication The Hill. It also proposed asking church leaders to spot “warning signs” of radicalization. The memo cited the SPLC in a list of nine Catholic organizations as “Defined RTC Hate Groups in the United States.”

As CBN News reported in February, the internal memo from the FBI’s Richmond office was rescinded by the agency after whistleblower Kyle Seraphin published it on UncoverDC.com on Feb. 8. The bureau’s national office said at the time the memo “does not meet the exacting standards of the FBI” and vowed to “conduct a review of the basis for the document.”

During a recent interview with the Heritage Foundation’s Daily Signal, Michael J. Matt, editor of the Catholic newspaper The Remnant and producer of Remnant TV in Forest Lake, Minnesota, said, “I have this suspicion that the SPLC was just laying the groundwork so that when the government gets far enough to the Left, they can start using these resources like the hate map to silence people.”

Matt told the outlet the SPLC brands Catholics “extremists” if they “still accept traditional church teaching on faith and morals,” describing Vatican II as an “updating of the church’s moral teachings, even though the teachings of the church haven’t actually changed at all.”

Statement from D.A. King on behalf of the Dustin Inman Society board of advisors

 

With the words and recommendations of Barbara Jordan as our guide, the Dustin Inman Society has taken an active, pro-enforcement position on immigration since 2005. We are proud to have Americans of all descriptions on our board of advisors and as donors and supporters. As we have repeatedly pointed out, those groups include proud immigrants. It came as quite a surprise to all of us when the disgraced and discredited hucksters at the anti-enforcement SPLC decided to smear us with a ridiculous and easily disproved, false label.

D.A. King

We regard the federal court’s denial of the SPLC’s motion to dismiss our complaint as the first step toward justice for the majority of Americans who demand the right to speak up against the organized crime that is illegal immigration without being smeared and attacked.

It is our often repeated belief that we cannot honor the American tradition of immigration unless and until we unapologetically enforce our immigration laws.

Most people can see the clear difference between advocating for enforcement of immigration laws and somehow hating immigrants or being “anti-immigrant” or anti-immigration. Most Americans can also see the abject absurdity and arrogant desperation in the SPLC’s premise that the Dustin Inman Society and/or the immigrants involved in our work are somehow “anti-immigrant haters.”

A brilliant example of the SPLC’s confidence that they can invent “anti-immigrant hate” without note or penalty is the fact that while they clearly spend considerable time researching our websites, the sleuths at the SPLC chose to ignore a DIS event aimed at drawing a clear line between illegal and legal immigration. Despite a surprise Saturday morning Atlanta snowstorm, “Honoring Immigrants: A pro-enforcement conversation on immigration” took place in early February 2020. The event featured proud immigrant speakers and attendees who made up a veritable rainbow of diversity. We again publicly repeated our pro-enforcement mission statement and goals.

Nevertheless, the Southern Poverty Law Center again put us on their “hate map” depicted as “an anti-immigrant hate group” and told the world we are focused on “vilifying all immigrants” that year and three subsequent years – even while our complaint was pending in federal court.

From public statements on  goals, we think the SPLC means to destroy our non-profit effort here by smearing us with disgusting lies. We’ll see what a jury thinks.

The most recent SPLC financial report shows a net worth of $639 million. $731.9 million. Much of that is apparently banked in off-shore accounts.

To keep our pro-enforcement effort going, my wife and I have two mortgages on the house we purchased in 1984.

We have a GoFundMe page appeal on the Dustin Inman Society website asking for help with legal expenses.

 Being that the SPLC was quite detailed in their 2011 statement to the Associated Press that we don’t fit their own definition of “hate group,” we think a court will recognize that this case is essentially SPLC vs SPLC. We think the SPLC has arrogantly and maliciously concocted “anti-immigrant hate” to marginalize political enemies and to fill their own fund-raising demand because of a real-world supply shortage.

Curious observers may want to check on the timing of the inclusion of the Dustin Inman Society on the 2018 SPLC ‘hate map’ and the SPLC registration to lobby against pro-enforcement legislation that we helped with and supported Georgia – we did.

We also look forward to the SPLC explaining the obvious and handy elasticity of their definition of “anti-immigrant hate group” that, when necessary, evidently includes expansion to guilt by association. We refer to a telling quote from then SPLC senior staffer Heidi Beirich in a 2017 AJC report. “Hearing about this US Inc. connection, I think we at the SPLC have to take a serious look at King’s outfit as possibly a hate group…”

The Beirich remark provides an opportunity to cite one of our favorite amusing, true and useful stories featuring Beirich and the SPLC: “The Southern Poverty Law Center: Part Karl, Part Groucho.”

We wish the Inman family were alive to see the SPLC in a courtroom as defendants.

We look forward to the discovery process. And we note that the SPLC’s hate mongering campaign could never have been taken seriously if not for the collaboration of many incurious “journalists” in American media.

“Racial discrimination. Sexual harassment. Off-shore accounts. Inflated and biased attacks on “hate.” These are some of the many reasons Americans should mistrust the Southern Poverty Law Center.”  We recommend educational reading on the SPLC in Tyer O’Neil’s 2020 book “Making Hate Pay: The Corruption of the Southern Poverty Law Center.”

SPLC to Face the Music for ‘Hate Group’ Defamation as Lawsuit Clears Major Hurdle

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—The Southern Poverty Law Center routinely brands mainstream conservative and Christian organizations “hate groups,” placing them on a map with chapters of the Ku Klux Klan, but most lawsuits aiming to hold the SPLC accountable for this alleged defamation have failed.

On Friday, however, a federal judge denied the SPLC’s motion to dismiss a defamation lawsuit, allowing the case to proceed.

The SPLC branded the Georgia-based Dustin Inman Society an “anti-immigrant hate group” in February 2018 after the SPLC had previously stated in 2011 that it did not consider the society a “hate group.” The society, named after a 16-year-old Georgia boy killed in a 2000 car crash caused by an illegal immigrant, aims to combat illegal immigration.

“After telling the Associated Press in 2011 that we were not a ‘hate group,’ the SPLC changed their mind and made us an ‘anti-immigrant hate group’ within days of their registering as active lobbyists against pro-enforcement, immigration-related legislation here in the Georgia Capitol,” D.A. King, the society’s founder and president, told The Daily Signal in an emailed statement Tuesday.

King claimed that the SPLC’s “goal was clearly to paint us as the extremists and to marginalize us in the eyes of state lawmakers and the media. That effort was largely successful.”

As I explain in my book “Making Hate Pay: The Corruption of the Southern Poverty Law Center,” the SPLC took the program it used to monitor the Ku Klux Klan—the Intelligence Project—and weaponized it against conservatives and Christians, branding them “hate groups” in an effort to raise money and demonize its ideological opponents. The SPLC has an endowment of more than $500 million and bank accounts in the Cayman Islands. Amid a racial discrimination and sexual harassment scandal in 2019 that led the SPLC to fire its co-founder, a former employee came forward, calling the “hate” accusations a “highly profitable scam.”

King’s lawsuit quotes Heidi Beirich—then-director of the Intelligence Project—who told The Associated Press in 2011 that the SPLC did not consider the society a “hate group,” but rather listed King as a “nativist.”

“His tactics have generally not been to get up in the face of actual immigrants and threaten them,” Beirich said. “Because he is fighting, working on his legislation through the political process, that is not something we can quibble with, whether we like the law or not.”…

We are sorry to inform you that D.A. King, President and founder of the Dustin Inman Society, has left us.

Donald (“D.A.”) Arthur King, 1 April 1952 – 5 March 2025.

D.A. King left this life and his work for the nation that he loved, confident that he has done his best. D.A. passed on peacefully after a private battle with cancer.

“Once a Marine, always a Marine” – D.A. was always visibly proud of his service and his honorable discharge from the U.S. Marine Corps (1970-1976).

D.A. described himself as “pro-enforcement” on immigration and borders, an issue on which he dedicated the last 21 years of his life as an expert activist, writer and public speaker.
